when i turn my pc on now, since instaling vista ultimate upgrade, my keyboard
wont work. Its drivin me crazy using the onscreen keyboard.
From what operating system did you upgrade? After you did the upgrade,
did you then install Vista drivers for all your hardware? If not, you
need to do so. Here is general information about drivers:
Never get drivers from Windows Update. Get them from:
1. The device mftr.'s website; OR
2. The motherboard mftr.'s website if hardware is onboard; OR
3. The OEM's website for your specific machine if you have an OEM
computer (HP, Dell, Sony, etc.).
Read the installation instructions on the website where you get the drivers.
To find out what hardware is in your computer:
1. Read any documentation you got when you bought the computer.
2. If the computer is OEM, go to the OEM's website for your specific
model machine and look at the specs (you'll be there to get the drivers
anyway)
3. Download, install and run a free system inventory program like Belarc
Advisor. The older Aida32 is good for this, too although it might not
work on Vista.

In the meantime, try a different keyboard - a standard ps/2 one if your
computer supports it.
